Deggary and ruin. Do you expect these un-
fortunate people to lie down at the feet of
the landlords and trust to them for mercy?

The days are gone by when the Irish

Mr.. OBrien concluded his address with an
eloquent peroration, predicting an early de-
llverance from landlordism in Ireland, and
from the curse and abomination of Dublin
Castle rule.
TORoNToS OPPOSITION.
TORONTO, ONT, May 12-The City Coun-
Gil met this afternoon, when the renting of
St Andrews Hall for William OBrien's
lecture Tuesday, was discussed 1t was
stated that the council had information that
breach of the peace would occur if Mr..
O'Brien lectured in that hall, and that prop
erty owners in the locality were afraid that
their properties would be damaged as they
feared a riot. Under these circumstances
it was decided to refuse to allow the hall to
be used for the lecture and to
refund the fee paid. Mr. Milligan,
President of the local branch of the
National League, who was present,
intimated that he would sue the city for
damages. He also stated that he had been
refused the use of the Toronto Opera House,
the Princess street rink, Shaw street rink
and the Pavilion Music Hail. 1t is doubt
full if hall in the city can be procured, and
if so it can only be one capable of holding a
small number OF people.
ADVISED TO STAY AWAY.
Mayor Rowland replied as follows to Mr.
O'Briens message OF yesterday: II cannot
encourage you to come to Saturdays meet
ing You are misinformed as to the facts,
as you probably have been as to the senti-
not been called to demand official prohibi-
tion of your meetings, but to express the
opinion of our citizens as to the propriety
of your coming here at all. We understand
your object in coming is to attack
the representative of her majesty, at
present our guest, on personal grounds,
as to the truth of which as matters of tact
we neither can nor should be called upon to
be judges. Our sense of fair play here will
nn a n nl9tfOlYn
of a gentleman who, by reason OF the high
Office which he holds, is not privileged to
meet and answer his accuSer in a like man
ner. If you persist in coming | shall have
to afford you the protection which the law
allows, but | would advise you to accept the
decision of Saturdays meeting which, | be-
lieve, will represent the true sentiments of
all classes in this city"
THE TIMES ON GLADsToNE's SPEECH.
LONDON, May 12.-The Times, in an ar
ticle on Mr.. Gladstone's speech to the nom
conformist Ministers at DR.. Parker's resi-
dence yesterday, says it is the most candid
revelation the Liberal Unionists could de-
sire of the objects and operations OF their
opponents in Parliament.
The Standard this morning says "Mr.
Gladstone's speech is so extraordinary that
it is difficult to regard it as the serious ut
terance of a statesman who has been thrice
Premier. 1t will add fresh strength to the
disaffected element in Ireland. II anything
could induce the Nationalists not to yield in
their efforts to make the unwritten law SUI
prcme, it would be the opinion Mr.. Glad
stone has seen fit to deliver on the emorality
of boycotting, and his justification of that
most cruel of league methods"
BRIGHT ON THE CONTROVERSY.
John Bright writes as follows about the
Parnell- Dillon Times affair: "All the Times
charges consist of evidence contributed by
the rebel conspirators themselves, and state
ments drawn from United Ireland, the
Irish World, ard other papers edited by or
the property of active consplratoIs. The
facts are their own facts. The Times did
not invent them. 1t only arranged them so
that the public could understand the case.
Parliament should have nothing to do with
it, These conspiratoTs and their papers
charged Earl Spencer and Mr.. Forster with
murder in knowingly hanging Innocent
men. Parliament did not interfere then to
protect Lord Spencer and Mr.. Forster.
WHY should it interfere now to defend Irish
writers and speakers and assume the duties
and labors of courts of justiceT
BALFoUR'S ABSENCE.
In consequence of the habitual absence of
Mr. Balfour from the House during the Irish
debate, Campbell Bannerman to-day tried
TO ascertain whether the government in
tended that the duties of the Chief Secre-
tary should revolve upon Colking Harmon,
and why Mr.. Balfour shirked the duty OF
responding to questions.
Mr.. Smith, First Lord of the Treasury,
excused Mr.. Balfour on the ground of "a
pressure of Irish business. The Ministerial
lists expect that Mr.. Balfour will withdraw
from the Irish Office Immediately after the
passage of the crimes bill.
Mr. Balfour is unable to overtake the
work OF the department, and suffers from
the mental strain. Mr. Ritchie, President
of the Local Government Board, who is of
stronger physique, is willing to accept the
post of Irish Secretary.
The breach in the personal relations OF
Mr.. Gladstone with Lord Harrington and
Mr.. Chamberlain is now complete Until
recently their political differences did not
cause a cessation of their personal inter
course Now, however, when they meet in
the lobbies OF the House of Commons they
do not speak, and do not even exchange
salutations Mr.. Chamberlain sits close TO
MIR. Gladstone in the House, but neither
makes a sign of recognition.
PARNELL's RETURN TO LONDON.
Mr.. Parnell, who is unfit for prolonged
work, returns to London on urgent pressure
from the Parnelites
Mr.. Morley proposes that he and Mr..
Gladstone confer with Mr.. Parnell and Mr..
Dillon in order TO arrange concerted action
upon the arrangements of the crimes bill.
